Delete the spaces between the brackets. Or just use the quote bubble at the top of your response entry field.

The quote bubble is the furthest icon on the right underneath where it says Message:

thanks for helping the local idiot

Your not an idiot

also, please please please label your quotes by inserting the persons name that you are quoting -- [ quote=opd743] blah blah [/ quote] -- it makes the thread flow much better and makes referencing context much easier.

Thanks guys for all the help. I know I'm good with guns just not these computer thingys. Wonder where that year of computer science education went?

There's no such thing as a stupid question. Having taught EMS to firefighters, though, I can say that there is such a thing as too many questions.

Why is it that other forums which appear to be using the same forum technology have quote buttons on each entry, but not here?
